Membránnal is a term that can refer to several related concepts, primarily in the fields of biology and chemistry, as well as in engineering and materials science. In its most common biological context, it refers to a cell membrane, a selectively permeable barrier that encloses the cytoplasm of a cell. This membrane is primarily composed of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, and it plays a crucial role in regulating the passage of substances into and out of the cell. It is essential for maintaining cell homeostasis, cell signaling, and cell adhesion.
Beyond biological membranes, the term can also describe synthetic membranes used in various industrial and technological
In a broader sense, a membrane is any thin, flexible layer or sheet that can act as
